I hate to post off topic but why don't you try another publisher? I recently found out that apress sells pdfs for 50% of a papercopy price. The pdfs are just password protected and according to the website "Printing, document assembly, content copying or extraction, and content extraction for accessibility are permissible, for personal use only." I dont want to promote them but their EULA seems nice in our DRM infested times. The only problem is that apress did not publish many books.

I did not get books from apress but I got a sample chapter. It is possible to format their pdfs nicely for a reader.
